Thai Chicken Pizza

Though I’m itching to really learn how, I hardly ever cook Asian dishes at home. Sure, I’ll whip up a stir fry here and a rice dish there, but I always play it safe. As far as Asian cooking goes, eh, I’ve gotten my feet wet. But I want to be dunked in head first!

Pizza is a great, wide open canvas for learning to cook new cuisines. You can mix up all different spices, textures and flavors. If you’ve made a splash, yippee!! If the flavors aren’t quite for you, well, it’s pizza. Someone will like it!

Asian cuisine, particularly Thai, encompasses some of our favorite flavors, so when my husband’s friend shared this recipe I didn’t hesitate to heat up my oven and get crackin’. The list of ingredients sounded mouthwatering and not intimidating (or hard to find) at all, which is always a plus in my eyes.

Chunks of chicken breast are tossed with peanut butter, soy sauce and hot sauce while sliced cucumber marinates in a mixture of sweet honey and tangy vinegar. Pizza dough is topped with cheese and bell peppers along with the chicken and cucumbers. After baking, a sprinkling of peanuts, fresh cilantro and alfalfa sprouts top off this terrific pizza for slightly sweet, spicy and surprisingly yummy flavor combo.

Hopefully you’ll love this recipe just as much as we did, and maybe it will inspire you to experiment more with Asian cooking, too!

Pretty! I’m boring and only eat pepperoni on my pizza. But pepperoni doesn’t even exist over here… Anyway, my husband would love something like this! I’ll save it for his birthday or something like that. :)
